Will end up in Billings tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apparently the working age here is 14&#8230; we asked the manager at an A&amp;W where we went for a soft serve Ice Cream&#8230; He said in Northern British Columbia there&#8217;s a labor shortage&#8230; a TEN YEAR OLD rang our order up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Didn&#8217;t see a lot of wildlife today&#8230; Nan saw a deer&#8230; We saw a lot of mythical moose crossing signs&#8230; We went to the West Edmonton Mall to check it out&#8230; it has an indoor water park, a miniature golf course, a grocery store, an 8 or 12 (can&#8217;t remember which) screen multiplex theater.&nbsp; There was&nbsp; a LOT of stuff to do there&#8230; oh there was a casino too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anyway, there wasn&#8217;t a lot of interesting stuff to take pictures of today, still we managed to shoot 119 stills&#8230;&nbsp; Here are a few\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure
